CALDERON Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 How is it down the road? Going by Met Office the temp should be a few above freezing by end of the week, would hope the game would be on? Provided the pitch isn’t already absolutely fucked by frost.

I'd suspect the pitch might already be frozen and would be surprised if it thawed out enough by Saturday. I'm not a groundsman so I could be talking out my arse mind you.

Paco Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I know we’ve been good at home but given Albion Rovers somewhat bizarre record of scoring at least twice in every away match, I could see us dropping points here. I just can’t see where we’ll score three goals from in any given match, let alone if we go behind. Could be a similar match to Cliftonhill if we lose the first goal. Could be off though. The pitch will almost definitely be frozen just now so it’ll need a couple of days over zero to thaw out. Might not be the worst thing if we can play it in March where you’d hope we have a stronger squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 The frost must be pretty well set in after the last few days. The forecast is for slightly milder conditions for the next couple of days but I'm doubtful it will be enough to thaw the pitch out. It's a sign of the times that I'm even saying this, but I would also be quite glad if the match is postponed given our current injury/form issues.

Don't think it would be the worst decision if the Ref called this off, weather apart there are other reasons, injuries etc , we are , as a team, "aff the bile". Our current form shows just how much we miss the likes of Bene et al, and have no replacement players of that standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 Flip side is we will likely find ourselves 8 points off the pace if the games off. We don't want to be playing Ayr in Jan with them able to open up a massive gap if they beat us (regardless of games in hand, they mean f**k all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRFC2711 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Being a kirkcaldy lawdie in Glenrothes I can testify that it's a different planet when it comes to weather up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Any danger this game is happening? Today was supposed to be ‘warmer’. It was cold and wet in the morning but by the time I got off the train at 6 it was back to freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 According to the FFP we have a "full squad" to choose from for this match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_the_rover Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hows kirkcaldy looking weather wise. If it was at coatbridge the game wouldnt be happenning sleet has been falling all night after heavy rain hail and everywhere freezing over. Not nice in general Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Pretty similar this way in general. The game might go ahead. It's wet now but then forecast to freeze on tomorrow and Saturday so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
